Catherine's Story
December 2009 I was diagnosed with stage 2 pancreatic cancer and in January 2010 I had the Whipple procedure. The operation was barbaric but the cancer had not spread to the lymph nodes and the margins were clear. I have just finished chemo and am beginning to get my energy back. I have three sons and the youngest (Noah) took the year off after high school and ended up spending it taking care of me...now he is a freshman at Skidmore and enjoying being away from his old parents! My middle son (Alex) is a senior at Clarkson U and living at home this year to save money. And my oldest (Adam) just got married early September 2010 and they live in Hawaii for now.
I continue to design and weave and sell on Etsy.com ...Expand for more
as barefootweaver. I try to ride my horse 3 or 4 times a week. I have a wonderful and supportive husband, Gary. And I feel hopeful about my future!
Update: CT scan August 2012 is clear and Adam and Alicia had a daughter, Ava, Aug. 1. They are flying home so we can meet the baby on Sept. 8. Maybe we can convince them to give up Hawaii and live on the east coast...yeah, right. Alex graduated with a five year BA in Engineering from Clarkson U and Physics from SUNY Potsdam and is going on for his masters from Clarkson. Noah is a Junior at Skidmore. And we have been building a new barn this past year (still ongoing). And trying to get up the energy to go to the 45th reunion. At least lately it's been cooler!
